First a fast way to read the data off disk to begin with, for start up time.

Then caching of row heights when they are calculated. Finally binary search

of row heights/positions when mapping coordinates to row indexes.



Of course depending on what calculations are truly necessary, the first draw

may still be slow, but there's really no reason a redraw should be slow

after changing one (or a few) values.


 Informative, thank you.


Yup, Scott's idea sounds like a good plan. Most people get good performance out of variable row heights by doing some sort of caching or heuristic that quickly determines the row height.
